was an “ardent foxhunter [who] generally rode thoroughbred horses bred
by himself, and amused himself and his friends by writing hunting songs
for the Old Tarporley Club meetings." The last few pages contain
45 notes, each with details about a specific poem he wrote. 240
pages with 45 Notes to the Hunting Songs at the back. The Introduction
is an interesting history of the Tarporley Hunt. Pages In excellent
condition with slight foxing on the outside edge of the book (not on
top or bottom edge). Title page (below) shows the worst foxing with
last page being comparable, other pages extremely clean. Nice dark
marbled paper inside the covers, bindings tight. Inside cover has
bookplate of Sir Peter Frederic Fleming, Leicester, Baronet.
